Age UK East London is an independent local charity. We've been working in our communities alongside older people for over 30 years. We have more than 80 dedicated staff and over 100 regular volunteers helping us to deliver services right across East London.
We are a brand partner of Age UK - the national charity formed from the merger of Help the Aged and Age Concern England.
Age UK East London aims to be an organisation that enables older people to:
• Retain maximum possible choice over the direction of their lives;
• Maintain and improve health;
• Prevent social isolation;
• Live in physical environments suited to their changing needs; • Have as many opportunities as possible for involvement in fulfilling community and leisure activities.
Older people and their carers are our partners in everything we do. We aim to keep our work:
• Personal
• Safe
• Expert
• Progressive
• Respectful
